from $390

📖 Overview

The original Samsung Galaxy A5 (2014) carries a single 13 MP f/2.0 rear camera with autofocus and an LED flash, paired with a 5 MP f/2.2 selfie shooter — a basic, fixed-focal setup with no OIS, ultrawide, or telephoto. Video tops out at 1080p/30fps and there is no RAW capture or log profile, making it a casual point-and-shoot device rather than an enthusiast imaging tool. Its 5.0-inch 720p Super AMOLED panel still delivers punchy, contrasty previews typical of Samsung's display tuning of the era.

45 degrees and the desert dust is hitting our 4x4 car as we raced through the sand dunes of the Arabian desert. It was the afternoon and we were exploring the depths of Dubai. The driver told us to hold on tight because he was about to take us on a roller-coaster, but of course, I couldn’t let the moments pass undocumented. So whilst we rocked through the dunes, we came across vast acres of this. Absolute serenity from the busy Dubai city. | photography of white SUV on desert
